Chapter 59

Expecting Xinyao to nod happily in agreement, Bai Xiaoying was inevitably filled with a sense of depression when she refused instead.

"Why not? Since Lord Xuanwu has stated that this method is viable, we might as well give it a try. If it truly succeeds, it can resolve our current predicament," Xinyao could not understand why the intentions of Zhuque and Hua Nongyue conflicted, wondering whose lead they should follow at a time like this.

Noticing the young master's imposing momentum, which made it clear he genuinely intended to buy a house for her, Lin Xinyao was completely flustered.

"Young master!" As water continued to splash all over her, Lin Xinyao could no longer bear it and cried out.

Xie Hexi remarked: Good teachers look for good students, and good students wish to find good teachers. When excellence meets excellence, they jointly nurture top-tier talents.

With the weather turning cold and the master's injuries not yet fully healed, what would happen if he went outside, caught a chill, and worsened his condition? Therefore, under no circumstances could they allow the master to go out.

Having arrived in Jiangning only recently, Song Zheng had very little understanding of the intricate and tangled relationships here. Had it not been for today's sudden turn of events, he would not have wished to provoke any conflicts with others.

He directly grabbed Miao Qianqian's wrist, intending to drag her away from this place. Miao Qianqian struggled angrily for a moment before forcefully flinging his hand off.

Startled unawares by the word "dead" that slipped from her lips, he hurriedly curved his middle finger and extended it beneath her nostrils to check her breathing.

Such a combination posed a genuine and lethal threat to the lives of Yang Jiao and Yang Jiao. At that moment, an intensely oppressive aura burst forth instantly, causing the sky to shake violently and develop cracks just like a piece of porcelain, as if it could shatter at any second.

Xu Cheng paused for a moment, looking at her with an innocent expression that clearly conveyed, "Why should I tell you?"

"Aren't those the two spirit ape brothers?" Shu Xie recognized at a glance that these two spirit apes were the ones he had previously crossed swords with, and his impression of them was remarkably favorable.

Upon closer inspection, the people charging over were none other than those fellows who had just gone out to dump the trash! At this moment, they no longer held any garbage, leaving only fists the size of sand-pot lids.

Lin Feng went to the back of the classroom to retrieve his guitar and practice his singing. Familiar footsteps echoed in the corridor, and his gaze pierced through the open door to see Ren Jiaxuan leading Dong Yanyan into the broadcasting class classroom.

Zhuici pondered for a moment before speaking again, "Well, for those clan leaders and princes, ten thousand taels of gold is nothing, but for ordinary people, it is a bit too expensive." As he spoke, Zhuici even shook his head.

Li Bai's figure dissolved into a blur, randomly choosing a direction to break through the encirclement. The Taibai sword in his hand flashed with a golden luster—this was precisely the most powerful sword technique he could execute at his current stage, "Flying Dragon in the Sky." The tip of his sword pointed directly at a weakness common to most beasts: the lower abdomen.

Therefore, Zhong Yunzhang's objective was very simple: to weaken the strength of the Shu state. How could this be weakened? Since the Chu army could not be used to directly attack the Shu army, he had no choice but to borrow a knife to kill someone, forcing the Shu army out of Shu to do battle with the Zhou army, and letting the Zhou army wipe out the Shu army!

Haye's face was gloomy, his eyes bloodshot as he inspected the assembled soldiers. In the span of a mere half-hour, the thirty-thousand-strong army had already completed its assembly—such speed was truly astonishing to behold.

From the White-Clad Army's reckless charging at the city gates, it was evident that in order to achieve the element of surprise, they had not brought along any large-scale siege weapons. Using tree trunks to ram the city gates might look grand and majestic, but in reality, it was the most foolish act possible.

Shi A's martial arts skills were exceptionally prominent, having deeply inherited the true teachings of Wang Yue. He was a rare and formidable expert, and the Liu army soldiers were simply no match for him, none of them daring to face Shi A alone.

Yet Guo Honghong refused to pay compensation at all and insisted on eloping with Fan Tong, leaving him to wonder what anyone could possibly do to her.

"Hmph! Matters without evidence are sheer nonsense. Even with conclusive evidence, His Majesty would surely turn his anger upon me for the loss of the imperial family's dignity!" said Fei Yu.

After a very long while, I suddenly saw him move, and then he walked into the Mountain God Temple. The moment he stepped inside, my heart began to pound wildly, and I held my breath even more tightly, not daring to move a single muscle for fear that he was heading toward me and that I had already been discovered.

When Zhang Liang recovered his wits, he could not help but cough lightly twice, and then somewhat reluctantly released the other person's warm and soft waist.

"Fine, fine, fine, I am a cheap piece of goods, and I'll be cheap for you to see." Lu Ailin kissed Ma Qi again a moment later, deliberately putting on this act for Young Master Chen's benefit while in the heat of anger.

"Then why does my husband treat this humble concubine like a scourge, unwilling to stay even a moment longer?!" Zeng Xingyin pressed relentlessly.

Then I raised my eyes and saw the wardrobe mirror, which reflected half of the bed. However, I caught sight of a pair of feet appearing at the edge of the bed, as if someone were sitting there just like that. At the sight of it, I was so frightened that I immediately sat straight up, but when I looked again, there was nothing there at all.

Meng Yuejia was torn between laughter and tears, yet she still chose to believe Fujiwara Yoriko's words, as the latter had no reason to deceive her.

"As long as I put my mind to it, this time next year will be the joyous day of my marriage," Huang Fu said with a confident smile.

"What? Mu Zifei, aren't you afraid the wind will flash your tongue?" retorted Wang Kai, who was seated not far from Aweia.

A golden eagle circled high above at an altitude of two thousand meters. Lin Yong's eyes constricted as he realized Fei Jin was hurrying toward this direction. He struggled to sit up, only to feel a total drain of his strength, his entire body aching right down to his bones.

Qilin's supreme heavenly treasure, the Blood-Consuming Divine Saber, unleashed a vast and boundless blade aura that tore apart the bloody mist with irresistible force. Originally invincible against cultivators in the Apotheosis Realm, this divine artifact could cause even ancient divine deities to suffer greatly if touched by its blade aura. Yet, he never expected that Gongyang Tu's Chiyou Flag would perfectly counter the effects of the Blood-Consuming Divine Saber.

Ahead of them, at the very end of the world, lay stretches of desolate, withered grass where an undistinguished mountain peak stood solemnly. Situated a thousand miles away, the peak was covered by countless nameless steles, pitch-black and obscuring the true reality of that place.

"We thank you as well, for adding yet another friend along the journey of life. Though we are ultimately bound to part ways, our friendship shall remain eternal." Liuyun smiled and extended his hand.

Only then did Xintian understand that the abrupt aroma of roasted meat had actually originated from the Heaven-Swallowing Insect.

Following that, Shirley saw Mu Zifei pull a massive beast thigh out of his spatial ring. It was evident that this leg had been stored for a very long time, as the outermost layer was completely air-dried.
